Welcome to Season 2 of The Cred Podcast: Authority Amplified, sponsored by, The Credentialed.
SEASON 2
On every episode, our Season 2 Host, Mack McKelvey, Founder/CEO, The Credentialed, will interview authorities across different industries who have deep industry knowledge and vast experience in their field. On this season of The Cred podcast, we will seek to understand the art and science of decision making.
Why?
All the research, inputs, gut-feel, and opinions of others doesn’t matter, because when you are a leader, the decision is up to you and you have to deal with the outcome
And every decision has an outcome. Becoming a confident decision-maker is one of the most challenging, risk-taking, and industry-transforming skills a leader can develop. The Cred Podcast seeks to unearth best practices for executives who are continuously confronted with a wide range of decisions, from seemingly small to massively pivotal. These industry catalysts share their practical experience in their approaches and how they navigate the outcomes. They’ll also share some of the pivotal decisions that made them who they are and how they lead.
Audience
Listeners are founders, VCs and senior executives decision makers: industry agnostic.

SEASON 1
We also recommend listening to Season 1, Catalysts and Allies.
Launched in October 2017 and hosted by veteran digital media and technology journalist Kate Kaye, Catalysts and Allies introduced listeners to the people who were leading the transformation of tech culture toward becoming one of inclusion and relevance for all. Interviews were approached from a journalist’s lens for an audience of people interested in technology and business as it affects society, culture and the people working in it.
Unlike diversity or inclusion-themed media, Catalysts and Allies aimed to advance beyond discussions focused on gender, race or persuasion to highlight the work, backgrounds and issues that drive the show’s wide spectrum of guests in the tech industry. And unlike other tech podcasts, conversations dove into the broader context of the technology subject matter and its relationship with the world, rather than narrow business media-centric angles such as tech products, competitive landscapes, financials or the next IPO.
Catalysts and Allies put a spotlight on innovators and their ideas, their backgrounds and the issues that drive them. Interviewees represented a variety of technology fields such as blockchain, IoT and facial recognition, as well as overarching fields including data, digital and social media and privacy.
